A No-Nonsense Old School Short Drama.
I had seen the official videos uploaded with no subtitles on YouHug's Youtube channel and did not think twice about this one until I stumbled upon the comment section of this drama, so thank you, users.
If you are used to watching a very typical CDrama style time-travel sans the nonsense fillers, this one is for you.
For starters, both the FL, Qian Jin and Huang Xiao are 'smart'. Frankly, the stock/investment/ and business talk was lost on me, but aside from that, this truly is an enjoyable drama. The romance was natural and felt nice as both of them truly "knew" each other.
The one downside was a character, who seems to have had his plot suddenly changed in between the script. I felt zero sympathy for him even with all the sob story nonsense and felt that they added all that just to fill up 24 episdoes.
The ending is very, very cliché and something you ought to expect from dramas such as these. But, it was emotional and I forgive them for this minor blunder.
All in all, this is a well made, no-nonsense short story which utilised its runtime well. It saved me from the Chinese Drama drought that had taken over the past year and made me pick up some major ones. [Special thanks to SoonSetra for her subtitles.]
